Transcript:
Professor: "Dear Dusty - I always remembered how you enjoyed the Chief on your visits... so, now that I've sold the house, I have little use or room for him... and now, he's yours! Enjoy! ... Warmest regards, Uncle Clem." Boone: Well, at least it wasn't a big box of his ashes... Professor: "P.S. - the Chief's head is equipped to hold my ashes after my passing on." Boone: Yuck.
Actress friend of mine who died a few years ago, one day bought her husband a wooden box on a whim. No purpose in mind, just a whim.
At her memorial he played a clip of her singing “Somewhere That’s Green” as Audrey in Little Shop of Horrors, about longing to be in a better place than the grayscale Skid Row. He then brought out the box, which now contained her ashes.
The box was green.
